Abstract
A wear-compensated ball-joint assembly comprises a housing having a bore in which are situated a pair of eccentric bearing wedge seats 14 having their outer surfaces rotatably seated on the bore wall and inner surfaces embracing and supporting the stud head in a position off-centre of the bore of the housing. A spring-loaded spreader wedge 73 which fits between the broader ends of the wedge seats urges the seats into good bearing contact with both the stud head and the bore wall to take up clearance therebetween. The wedge, which extends the full length of the bore and engages the seats along the full length thereof, is held in place by the threaded plug 64 which is provided with a lubrication duct 68 (Fig. 4, not shown), as is the wedge (74). The joint may be provided with a grease seal (18) and top and bottom housing plates (36 and 38)-see Figs. 2 and 4 (not shown).
